Darth Toaster: May The (Break) Fast Be With You

The Darth Vader Toaster is pretty bogus: any real Jedi would just slice his loaf with a Light Saber and it would fall ready-toasted, needing only a quick slathering of butter and jam (blueberry for the good guys and red, red, raspberry for those on the Dark Side).

But until the Light Saber becomes a common part of the culinary toolkit (a true multi-tasker, we might add) then we'll have to settle for this junky plastic toaster, the result of pouring black beads into the mold-maker instead of the usual white. It's exactly the same as a normal thrift-store toaster, only it has the addition of a Darth Vader shaped element which appears to char the Dark Lord's visage into your breakfast bread. And we mean char – in the picture the center section looks almost inedible.

And of course, you'll be stung on price, too. $55. For that money, we'd expect a steaming replica of a dead Tauntaun, toast popping crisply from its freshly sliced stomach. Available January 2009.
